Religious Cards

I had two ordered cards to do this week, a Holy Communion and a Confirmation one... I was going to use the stamps I normally use, but then I came across this gorgeous image from Precious Moments and definitely I had to have a go with this cutie.

I tend to keep these type of cards rather clean and simple, but really loved how it turned out... and a real quickie one too :)   ..Should I do it with the gems or the calice ?? ........

Here is a close up of the sweetie boy... coloured with my promarkers... can't understand why there isn't a freebie Holy Communion girl as well!!

This is the second card I did... decided to do it the same as the other one but different colours. The stamp is from Karen's Doodles, did the little flowers with my Martha Stewart punch.. so quick :) 

Entering both my cards in these challenges today:

Confirmation

I'm soooo excited today... there is the first Semifinals of the Eurovision Song Contest and my friend Thea will be singing for MALTA !!!! Ten will be qualifying tonight and another ten on Thursday... I can't wait to see her :)) ..

hey...

.. are you from Europe ?? ...

Well you know what to do if you like Malta's song .. hint hint .. vote for us please

She is singing in the 11th place ..

Here's my card for today, and again I'm using one of Karen's digis. Today I decided to try something different and so instead of colouring her dress with my promarkers I filled it with the same background paper.. not paper piecing though. What I did was I turned the dress only to ALPHA in the GIMP program and then filled it with the paper which was a digi file as well! I think it came out ok :)



Here is the sketch that I followed.



and these are the challenges:

1 - Critter Sketch Challenge No 15 - THE SKETCH
